Why Go on a Delhi-Agra Tour?
Well, it is no surprise that a sunrise Taj Mahal tour from Delhi is one of the most popular travel plans. It brings together the beauty of the iconic Taj Mahal with the splendor of the historic monuments in Delhi in a magical way. Whether you are a history buff, a cultural connoisseur, a lover of art and architecture, or just a globetrotter who loves exploring pretty places, a Delhi-Agra tour meets all your requirements. Both these cities are home to several UNESCO World Heritage Sites, so you can be sure of making the most of every penny you spend on booking this tour.
Apart from witnessing the unparalleled charm of these architectural marvels, you also get to be a part of the vibrant Indian culture by exploring the narrow streets and local markets of both Delhi and Agra. The shopping session is more than just retail therapy; it’s an experience that brings you closer to the roots of India, making you fall in love with its authenticity.
Finally, in addition to exploring the monuments and markets, you get to experience the royal taste of mouthwatering Mughlai dishes, desserts that make you drool, and street food that is absolutely lip-smacking. What more could one ask for, isn’t it?
How To Reach Agra from Delhi?
There are many modes of transportation available to reach Agra from Delhi. These include:
By Bus: If you are traveling on a shoestring budget and need an affordable means to get to Agra from Delhi, then traveling by bus is the best option for you. You can choose from standard or deluxe bus services, based on the amenities required and your budget. While traveling by bus can get a little uncomfortable, it is a good way to reach your destination if train seats are unavailable and you need to make last-minute arrangements.
By Car: If you take the Yamuna Expressway, you can cover the distance between Delhi to Agra within 4.5 hours. Whether you are traveling in your private car or hiring a taxi, road trips are always enjoyable and memorable, and this one is going to be no exception.
By Train: Train journeys are often considered tedious, but not when you are traveling from Delhi to Agra. This is because of the Gatimaan Express, a super-fast train that leaves from Delhi at 8:10 in the morning and reaches Agra at 9:50, helping you cover the distance in just 1 hour and 40 minutes! If you are searching for the quickest mode of travel, you have your answer!
While the above options are open to all travelers and they can choose the one that serves them best, if you are interested in a private sunrise Taj Mahal tour from Delhi, we recommend traveling to Agra by private car on the night of the first day of the tour. This will leave you with enough time to relax in Agra during the night, recuperate from the fatigue of the road trip, and get up early in the morning to enjoy the most picturesque sight of the Taj Mahal at sunrise.
Best Time to Visit the Taj Mahal
The Taj Mahal is a stunning white mausoleum that looks breathtaking regardless of the time of the day. In fact, the grand monument seems to change its color three times a day. During the early hours, the rays of the rising sun falling on the white marble make the Taj look pink. In the afternoon, it looks completely white. And during sunset, it turns yellow. If you watch the Taj Mahal during a full moon’s night, its beauty multiplies and it turns blue under the ravishing night sky.
Having said that, the Agra Taj Mahal sunrise tour is the most popular option as the vision of the grand structure turning pinkish yellow is unlike any other. So, if you are looking for the best time to visit the Taj Mahal, it has to be early morning. As for the season, winter is the most suitable as Agra can get unbearably hot during the summer, and exploring the city during the rainy season is never a good idea.
Tourist Attractions Covered
Now that you have a brief idea about the tour, let’s tell you about the major tourist attractions that you will view on a 2-day private Delhi-Agra tour package.
In Delhi: The capital city’s tour will take you through some of the most famous landmarks like the Qutub Minar, Humayun’s Tomb, Lotus Temple, and India Gate. You can also see the Parliament House and President’s House as you drive past these locations.
In Agra: Your Agra tour will begin with the most sought-after experience—a sunrise view of the Taj Mahal. Then you will explore the Agra Fort and the many significant buildings on its premises like the Diwan-i-Am and Diwan-i-Khas. The tour will end with a visit to the local handicrafts market.
